“To Whom This May Concern” arrives following a milestone period in Scott’s career. In the past year, she celebrated the 20th anniversary of her debut album “Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1,” a release that earned her a Grammy Award and helped redefine modern soul music. She also completed a sold-out North American anniversary tour spanning more than 20 cities.
The album’s artwork was created by acclaimed visual artist Marcellus and played a key role in shaping the project’s emotional tone. The imagery uses color and texture to reflect the album’s musical landscape, blending poetry and melody into a unified visual statement.
Ahead of the album’s release, Scott has shared the lead single “Beautiful People,” which is now available on all streaming platforms. With more than two decades of artistic impact behind her, Jill Scott continues to expand her legacy across music, literature, film, and television, including appearances in “Why Did I Get Married?”, “Why Did I Get Married Again?”, “The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency”, “Get On Up”, and “Abbott Elementary”.
